Question

Compete the sentences . Put the verbs into the present perfect or the Past Simple 1.B- no,I........But my elder brother ....... (Go ) there last summer .

Answer 1

1. No, I didn't but my elder brother went there last summer

Answer 2

To complete the sentence, we need to choose between the present perfect and the past simple tense for the verbs. Let's consider the options:

1. B- no, I........But my elder brother.......(Go)+ there last summer.

Now, we need to choose the appropriate tense for the verbs "have been" and "went".

If we use the present perfect tense, the sentence would be: B - No, I have not been. But my elder brother went there last summer.

If we use the past simple tense, the sentence would be: B - No, I was not. But my elder brother went there last summer.

Both options are grammatically correct, but the choice between present perfect and past simple depends on the context and the speaker's intended meaning. If the speaker wants to emphasize the connection between the past and the present, or the relevance of the action to the present moment, the present perfect tense would be more appropriate. If the speaker is simply stating a past action without emphasizing its connection to the present, the past simple tense would be more appropriate.
